A Kenmore washer shares most of its basic parts with other washers, but its drive design, lid or door lock, controls and error codes are specific to the brand. Below are independent repair companies serving Covina, with those that mention Kenmore first, then the nearest appliance repair companies.
This is an independent directory. We are not affiliated with Kenmore, and the technicians listed are independent repair companies, not the manufacturer.
